The World Wide Fund for Nature (WWF) launched its “One Planet City Challenge 2019” on Tuesday.
This year the One Planet City Challenge has a new assessment framework based on data from the IPCC, the UN climate panel.
Participating cities will compare their current emissions with the emission reductions necessary to reach the 1.5°C target in a tailor-made analysis.
This will establish the ambition levels required taking into account each city’s level of development.
